To bloody well buggering HATE Daddy Long Legs bastards

[OraProNobis]

There's one in every room. No windows open. They just appear. I'm in bed and there's one rattling around the ceiling in that pointless fuck-witted way. I hate that noise. I hate their stupid long legs. I hate the stupid way they crave the light. And I hate them. AIBU.

I don't mind daddy long legs at all... but swap wings for two extra legs... hysterical screaming....

it is horrible when there is something nasty in the room.

Apparently their only purpose is to hang around until they get eaten by a bird.

Made me feel a bit sad for them when I heard this. So yes, yabu.

And pick yourself up off the floor, you look ridiculous.

Aw they are a pain but they are kind of cute.

They don't have much of a life really and they mean no harm

I actually have decided that they have secret powers of teleportation.

Bet the birds don't know about that.

I'm squealing like a stuck piggy here! I DO look and sound ridiculous! And the thing is- yesterday I calmly and humanely removed a saucer sized spider from the living room that had two grown men whimpering!! It's just the noise and the juddering about that these fuckers do. I can't stand it!!

They don't have much of a life really and their legs fall off easily. They can't help their rather unappealing physique. Give them a break.

I'm going to put the light out and trick it into another room.

YANBU. Flappy fuckers

YANBU

Loathe them. I can't sleep if there is one in the room. It's that stupid fucking noise their hideous bodies make when they hit the roof. Boak.

Kill it.

I hate them. My brother used to chase me around the house with a DLL in his hands. Sometimes he was pretending, sometimes he wasn't.....

Oh thank you!! I thought it was just me because everyone was saying what a shit life they have. Well I'm sorry about their shit lives but fuck off out of my room! I can't sleep with that in here. It might land in my face ffs!
Southsea your brother sounds like the very worst kind of nobber!!

I am loving the sympathy for DLL here

YANBU they are horrible. It's the way their legs break off so easily that I hate. I'm a cleaner and had to mop up a dead one with kitchen towel at work this week. It broke into several pieces and I thought I was going to throw up.

Are daddy long legs and crane flies the same thing?

I feel so sorry for them, living such a short time to breed and die. I always catch them and set them free. My boy can't leave one without rescuing it now and setting it free outside at age 5. Sweet

Yes armani

I hoover wasps out of the air when they are buzzing round the light on the landing. maybe that would work for daddy longlegs.

Yes - they are aka crane flies. I don't want to hurt them. I don't kill them. I never use fly spray on anything. I just want them to piss off! Luckily they're so one dimensional that a light in another room will have them jangling and clattering off for a flap fest elsewhere. Stupid buggers.

Someone is spinning very fine webs all over my house. I wish they'd bugger off into the garden and do it!

If I did that susan then I swear I'd hear them flap-arsing about inside the Hoover. And then I'd have to go doo-lally-tap.

I was so confused about all this talk of flying daddy long legs and wings... where I live, THIS is a DLL

Freaky spider thing whose legs keep twitching even after they are no longer attached to its body... just WRONG!

I'm the Daddy Long Legs remover in this house. DH hates them but they don't really bother me unless they are in the room when I'm trying to sleep.
I do find it quite funny that he'll easily remove spiders for me but runs away from Daddy Long Legs.

WTAF!! Where do you live? Just so I know to think very carefully before visiting!

That's me too still. It's the noise I think. And the flapping.

Is that a harvestman CallMe?
